| Oh man you'd be shocked on Twitter. So many people have outsourced to AIs as arbiters of truth and reality. The number of "@grok is this true" "@perplexityai is this real" that pepper any post en masse is shocking and dismaying to me. In what I suppose shouldn't be a surprise but still stings, people seem to be offloading critical thinking and examination onto LLMs first, with usage as a tool for gathering context/additional points of research to go explore/hyper-efficient search engine etc. coming in a sadly distant next/N-th place. |

| ▲ | jkingsman 5 days ago | parent [-] | | Because they say "is this true" and "is this real," not, "provide context" or "where can I go to learn more", and the answer quality reflects that. | | |

| The sentence "Even AI gets it right..." implies they do not think it's a source of truth, they think it's embarrassing for it to get it right and a human not to. |

The screenshot in the link shows an analysis that's based on a set of invalid/incorrect assumptions. Specifically, MCP servers are expected to run in a trusted environment by definition. So, MCP servers can safely treat their input as trusted, as well. At least, that's what the spec says. | |

| I did out of curiosity. Remember that Github feeds AI, new developers use AI to generate code, now what is the lowest bar of asking AI "if this code is safe". |

| Ad populum fallacy will now be replaced by Ad AI said so.... the funny part is the "Sources??" people are some of the most reliant on it |

| Probably same people who discuss war plans on Signal. |
